It is similar to the old Dune games. It crashes on my iPad about 3 out of 5 ‘hard mode’ episodes. If you are going to sell the game please fix bugs. I didn’t pay much with the bundle but I still expect to be able to play without crashes. Thanks ### 4/5 — Good, not enough content *2023-01-21* Highly repetitive, but fun in general, expect a 3hr story mode and another 4 hr or so with custom mode before it gets boring ### 4/5 — Great game *2022-03-07, version 1.01* Many good ideas, plays really great on the phone. Intuitive Use of controls. Tech tree is nice. Still I love MechCom 1 the most. This one is far slower. And searching the last 2 buildings on a large map takes time and the minimap doesn’t show anymore who owns an area. Still one of the best rts I played on the phone. ### 5/5 — Русский язык *2020-11-11* Русский язык добавьте ( Russian language add) ### 5/5 — スマホゲーとしては優秀 *2020-09-26* スマホゲーで可能な容量でStarCraftを模倣したRTSとしては優秀なゲーム。 ユニットアップグレードもあるし、ミニガン、キャノン、ミサイル、レーザー、長所と短所があるのもいい。 PvPがないのは残念だけどBotの難易度がEasy,medium,Hardまであるのがいいところ ### 4/5 — This game is great! *2020-09-01* I like this game a lot. The only problem I have with it is my resources will randomly start only being worth 10 instead of 50 and I don’t know why or how to stop that from happening. Could just be me as I’m new to the game but it’s frustrating when I’m doing well and all of a sudden have no money coming in. ### 5/5 — This developer has the golden touch *2020-08-27, version 1.01* Modern games, modern clean simple interfaces, and with no ads or AIP nor the modern equivalent of oldschool grinding gameplay, this developer knows how to code fun gameplay. An element is a less-is-more kind of thing.. not clutter/busy for sake of busy-ness. Thanks and look forward to anything else you think of! ### 5/5 — Best mobile rts out there prob *2020-08-14* This is probably the best mobile* rts game out there and the AI Fix has improved the difficulty of the game so it’s playable I’m hooked and love it idk what could even match this game ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-08-07, version 1.01* Can u make a mech com 4 game that has more maps, bigger maps add more units and more team’s ### 5/5 — I wish there was transportation troops *2020-07-18* Like chinooks or trucks and a way more open map with humans aliens and something else basically asking for more troops and enemies clan ### 4/5 — Something good! *2020-05-28* You’re on to something good here! I like and understand the simplicity of it. A few things that would be good, being able to change the type of turrets like you can the mechs, perhaps you could add docks and marine units. And maps that are little more uneven. It becomes very easy to workout where your opponent will be. And maybe PVP. ### 5/5 — Klassisches Spiel ohne unangenehmes *2020-05-18, version 1.01* Toll ein Spiel ohne andauern Werbung oder Power ups genießen zu können. Um abends mal ne Runde zu zocken ist das Spiel super und gerade die domination Funktion Wird nach kurzer Zeit schon sehr anspruchsvoll. So bleibt es spannend. Top Spiel für den Preis einer Packung Kaugummi! ### 5/5 — Gutes Spiel *2020-05-17, version 1.01* Ich kann jedem dieses kleine Aufbau Strategie spiele empfehlen. Der einzige Nachteil ist das es noch keinen Multiplayer gibt. Hoffentlich reichen sie den noch nach. Trotzdem Super :) ### 5/5 — Давайте новую *2020-05-02* Давайте новую ### 4/5 — Great start *2020-02-23, version 1.01* This game is a solid RTS..... mostly rush and a little challenging towards the end of each campaign but needs more towards builds and army but very good for where the game is at. ### 5/5 — Пш ништяк *2020-02-16* Единственное настоящее rts в апсторе. Раньше были отличные проекты oil rush и starfront collision, но сатаническая жадность разработчиков неупоминаемых компаний привела к отсутсвию поддержки кстати платных игр, в общем их больше нет. Вместо них фермыдоильни только. А тут при всей простоте самая настоящая ртс механика. Респект разрабам однозначно, только непонятно зачем три игры было выпускать платные если это все допиливание одной игры? В игре нет рекламы и предложений что нибудь купить) Вот если бы они выпустили полноценную игру рублей этак за 500 с нормальной графикой и в сеттинге а-ля red alert или tiberium sun, без встроенных покупок, с простеньким сюжетом и обязательно режимом скримишбатл против ии а может и мультиплеер против друга - я бы обязательно купил и был бы рад) и ещё претензия к аппстору! Почему вводя RTS я не нахожу эту серию игр ? только какую то чушь находит, эта игра должна находится , ну mushroom wars ещё... У этой игры в названии RTS написано ну вы что Але) Вам вообще надо бы поиск починить много чего не ищет, да и фильтр бы не помешал типа без встроенных покупок или оффлайн игры или наоборот прям выбрать игры-сервисы.. кучу классных игр сложно найти а ведь есть devil May cry или resident evil игры старой школы а вместо них находит только сервисигры((( ### 5/5 — Awesome! But here’s a idea👍 (FOR DEVS) *2020-01-01* The game is great! I like how there’s no build locations anymore, and that the different teams have new weapons and vehicle types, but, there are some other things that would also be cool if they were in-game, mostly because, the game seems a bit too similar to MechCom 2. One, a upgrade option for speed would be nice, the damage and armor upgrade ability is nice, but they are also in MechCom 2, another option would be cool. Two, PLEASE NERF CPU AND MINIGUN, I had a squad of aircrafts with PLASMA WEAPONS, and a group of blue MINIGUN Mechs took them out, sure there was a army of cannon AND minigun Mechs at my base, but the BEST WEAPON FAILING AGAINST A STARTER?! Pls nerf minigun, maybe add back the 1 weapon and 2 weapon research from MechCom 1. And Finally, a 5th weapon and vehicle type, like for a example, you COULD add a piercing weapon, like a railgun, and then add shielded rover wheels, so that Mechs could resist minigun by 50%, I’m just saying, that these ideas should be added, pls don’t be insulted devs. Again, any random person reading this that isn’t the devs, this review was for devs, because the game seems TOO similar to the 2nd game. ### 4/5 — All MechCom Review *2019-12-02* I initially enjoyed these mech games for their simplistic strategy and interesting terrain features. I enjoyed MechCom 3 the most with the different planet terrains and the choices of Domination, Quick Play and Custom Games. Graphics are well done and the sound features are adequate for these games. Now for the criticism. The game is pretty much unbeatable beyond Easy level. Any Domination game, where you are pitted against the other two opponents on the same map is pretty much impossible to win. You have to defend yourself against two attackers and you are able to defeat one, the other has built up a larger uncontested army that it just rolls over you. The computer AI builds structures and units faster than you do. If you are playing against a single opponent on Easy level the only way you can possibly win is to find their starting base ASAP, build units as quickly as possible and swarm their base. Play becomes pretty frantic with little time to sit back and think about your next build or uncover more of the map. Forget trying to win at Normal or Hard. All three games need to be adjusted for better playability. Slow down the computer build rate. I also think the price of buildings is too high. If you attempt to try and build Rocket or Aircraft mechs, you have to go through a lengthy build tree, expending lots of resources in exchange for building mech units to fight the computer player. Rarely, have I been able to build higher level units and win. You just get swarmed by lower level, less expensive computer units. It also would have been nice if the designers could have provided some strategy tips and explanation of game mechanics. None of that is provided in any of the games. You are on your own to figure everything out. Maybe there is a way to defeat the computer at harder levels, but I have not been able to come up with any strategy that consistently works at above Easy level. All three games are inexpensive, which is a plus. Enjoy playing them until you hit that wall of frustration where you can no longer advance and defeat the computer. Good luck. ### 4/5 — Difficult *2019-10-22* I agree with the review that this game is hard, even on easy setting. Otherwise well done. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible RTS *2019-02-27, version 1.0* I loved all the Starcraft RTS, and beat them all. I played them more than once. This may initially look like StarCraft but is not even a comparison. The game is terribly balanced. It’s a waste of time and money. Very little to no strategy. ### 1/5 — Terrible, fake reviews *2019-01-26, version 1.0* Just a terrible game, fake reviews, etc. ### 1/5 — Зря потраченные деньги *2018-11-03* Запутанная короткая стратегия с неудобным управлением, за счет чего противник всегда в выигрышной позиции ### 1/5 — This game was great!! *2018-07-18* I like Mechcom games, the game was great. Everything about this 3rd version are better than previous games EXCEPT the balance of the game. I read the other users preview say abt the balance is very bad, and i agree. Previous Mechcom are better YES we need harder difficulty but not punishment.. having only 20 units and enemy on easy move like professionals, and on medium they have better tech.. I don’t regret buying this game, i support the developer to do better, please review the balance I also bought game package, tried mechcom 1 and 2, and yes.. again, 3 is better but the balance need to be review. ### 1/5 — Just skip this one *2018-01-24* The game is anoyingly impossible to beat on normal (haven’t even thought about trying hard mode), but it is playable on easy, which gets boring after a while since the enemy can’t act straight on easy. Try it on normal though if you wanna experience the “Dark Souls” of RTS games. The difference is you can beat “Dark Souls”, this one - no way. ### 1/5 — Impossible *2018-01-22* Started a new game. First level easy difficulty. Can’t win nomatter what I do. Turtle up I lose. Rush enemy I lose. Expand I lose. Wall base in I lose. Upgrade damage and armour I lose. Erm ...... why😂 ### 1/5 — Has a bug! *2018-01-07, version 1.0* It keeps telling me that I don't have enough supplies to craft more vehicles even though I do. Consequently I keep getting overrun. Fix please! ### 2/5 — Meh *2018-11-04, version 1.0* Not that eventful and not that much to do the mech building mechanic is also not that great and could be improved a lot ### 2/5 — Fun for a minute *2018-01-16* The game quickly goes from super easy to impossible after the first few missions. Game play is not as complex as you might think since even though there are many vehicle options, you just end up trying to crank out cheap mechs to keep up with the boosted abilities of the AI. Also, there’s no instructions, directions, tips, anything? Why do my harvesters just start producing 1/5 of what they used too at the beginning of the battle for example? ### 3/5 — Good, but could be better *2025-01-12* A decent real-time strategy game, but lacking any semblance of a story. The “Domination” game mode is intriguing, but it cannot be completed without playing several matches on Hard mode, which is significantly too difficult for casual players to enjoy. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple and Wonderful Gameplay *2025-06-10, version 1.01* Simple and Wonderful Gameplay ### 5/5 — Melhor do Game do gênero! *2025-06-01* Por favor volte a desenvolver novos games, novas possibilidades! Amamos esse jogo! ### 5/5 — Multiplayer? *2025-02-28, version 1.01* Just started, love everything about it, hopefully this turns into a multiplayer FFA or 3v3, has a lot of potential, more unit upgrades too and one day hopefully sea units too ### 5/5 — I love it, but it gets too hard too fast *2025-02-14* This is an amazing game, but it unnecessarily gets hard fast, the systems bots are stronger than mine once it gets to normal mode, I’ve tested the bots via 1 v 1 and the system always wins, isn’t that a bit unfair? ### 5/5 — Excellent little indie game *2024-12-26* Fantastic value for money, really challenging and fun. Please make a Mechcom 4! ### 5/5 — RTS Klassiker *2023-10-05, version 1.01* Das Spiel ist super! Man könnte weitere Verbesserungen machen, z.B. Zoom out des Spielfeldes, weitere Nationen mit anderen Einheiten. Dafür würde ich gerne bezahlen. ### 5/5 — Tolles Spiel *2023-06-17, version 1.01* Dieses Strategiespiel ist sehr gut und anspruchsvoll. Es wäre schön, wenn noch weitere Technologie Zentrum gibt, wie Nuklear Waffen oder Verbesserungen an Gebäuden. ### 5/5 — Next version? *2022-12-26, version 1.01* I really enjoy this game, would be great for an updated version to come out! ### 5/5 — Best game ever! *2021-09-14, version 1.01* Such a good game ### 5/5 — 스타크래프트 비슷한 게임 *2020-12-15* 스타프론트 내려가고 비슷한 게임 찾으려고 노력했는데 이게 제일임 인구 수 건물, 업그레이드 건물, 생산 건물 나뉘어 있고 전장 속 안개도 잘 구현됨. 기체와 무기 조합으로 구성하는 방식도 재미있음 스플래시 데미지 있는 공격 방식 추가하면 더 재밌을 것 같고, 부대지정이 통으로 밖에 안돼서 4부대 정도로 나눠서 컨트롤할 수 있게 하면 좋을 것 같음. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
